My Project

I love seeing my students smiling and happy. They are so special to me because they really like working hard in everything they do especially pleasing me. I chose these products for the “Structure My Play” project so I can, in turn, please them.

Having these items as a part of our structured play will eliminate accidents and fights on the recess field, and students will still be learning as they

play. This will teach my students how to develop new skills, develop physically and learn how to play and get along with others. They will be so happy to have their own equipment and not have to borrow other classes' materials.
